"Veteran experimental filmmakers Danielle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub helmed this unusual adaptation of a novel by Elio Vittorini. Focused on the triumphs and failures of a group of laborers and farm hands who pooled their resources to operate an alternative collective farm after the end of World War II, Operai, Contadini features a cast of 12 actors who read aloud from Vittorini's book for the duration of the film, either reciting from memory or using a clearly visible script. Hardly designed to be a crowd pleaser, Operai, Contadini proved to be controversial among the audiences for its showings at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, where it was screened as part of the Directors' Fortnight series." ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
"The group makes up a primitive community which seeks to erase not only the distress created by the war but also the hardships of life and hunger, and to protect them from violence, misery and fear. Amid the ruins of this post-war period, the characters build and invent a rapport both in their professional and daily lives between themselves, the sexes, generations, diverse social and geographical origins, and antagonistic political camps.
The group maintains a 'register', a kind of diary, as if it were entering the minutes of an inquiry or a trial." -Steve Grayson
"my favorite Straub-Huillet films are Too Early, Too Late and Operai, contadini (2001), both color landscape films with especially acute senses of place as well as of nature in all its harsh beauty." - Jonathan Rosenbaum
视频里山崖的燕群飞起，埋没砂土里的恐龙遗骨，路旁仙人掌的密密荆刺，摊开手掌令星尘落于右手。这些令一路旷野不辨方向，也有星点光茫。在路上的人穿梭与停留，遇见再告别，并非没有其它选项，她只是可以继续依傍惯性~具体的孤独艰难爱与回忆是无处不在的东西，可以成为一条孤绝狭长路，通向生命终点带着独家记忆消亡。引用的两首莎士比亚，很是动人。
你却比夏季更可爱温存
影片最后的字幕：献给那些无法停下脚步的人，我们路上再见~
由衷感叹，独立勇敢又坚贞的硬核女性，本应拥有幸福啊，但好像只有漫无边际的孤独。
有多余剧情，但整体感觉是对的
EP.22-26 《柱众会议》
除去剪辑配乐和细节处理上缺乏想象力等问题外 还有大部分女导演都会有的一个通病：sentimentally melodramatic
8.5。以为是社会议题，导演却更侧重精神方面。不是积极或消极如此二元，而是过程和升华。有无尽的自由，也有无尽的孤独。女配角说出的所见之美想起银翼杀手中的名台词，人和仿生人在精神上有了那一刻的共通。
3.5 吾心安处便是家，若是千疮百孔的心灵呢，便成了无依之人。她路过一段段的人生，所有的情绪都若即若离，无法融入。从漫无目的的孤身上路，到轻装上阵的再次出发，也许完成了自我和解吧
see you down the road🎇
居无定所、安居乐业、游牧民、西部开拓者……从美国传统来看，有些灵魂是注定“被流浪”的。当一类矛盾与民族性紧密关联时，它的化解本身就是矛盾了。
第一次真切从电影中感受到 原来一个普通人的生活真的值得被拍成一部电影啊 我们真的可以做主角诶
每一个在夹缝中生存的灵魂都应该相信无依之地的也有温暖
视觉语言的高级，摄影指导错失奥斯卡太冤，但内容真是命题作文
“水无形而有形,无物而容万物”——水作为传统的女性性别符号，尤其是东方女性，象征着协调、温润、灵动、没有棱角、却充满着韧性和力量、也从不停歇。在这部电影里，无论是影像风格、内容、主角性格都体现着这一点。
万事几时足，日月自西东。无穷宇宙，人是一粟太仓中。
导演视角、演员表演、角色困境融为一体，看似荒野中四顾茫然的人生，但每一程都使“人”的力量加增一分。
想起了《美国甜心》，想起我们这一代人，这是我们的未来吗？
都不会像你想象的那样好
因为网速卡而看了无数遍的开头，以至于已经可以默背下分镜。过了很久回味起来，都能记起这个沉默、冷冽、利落的开篇。
